Reel or No Reel also gets my vote, after a story I posted a while back on here. Abhorrent machine!
Also, that Showtime machine appears to be the pits. Why can't they replace the 'bankrupt' squares with 'collect pot' or something, at least then you 'might' make a few quid if you manage to open that game. I watched a chum who 'liked' this machine put £100 notes through one last Friday, and it didn't really go past £4 on the cash side. A few £25+ showtimes were offered, but he busted out. He then got a JP from Nearest win, but then it died on it's arse again after that. One I will certainly not be playing! I never played the one that was similar to it, either, what was it called; Wheel of Wealth?
Another one that both me and a chum have been stung on, is an 'apparently rogue' King's Ransom. Gambling the bonus a la usual technique often yields nothing. It reds up like, well, like a bloke who has just caught his supermodel missus in bed with a geek, yet 'still' fobs you off with a £1 safe cash win. As this is the only one of it I've played, this would equate to the worst Red machines for me.
Open The Box: Not 'the worst' machine ever, but incredibly, unbelievably, unforgivably shocking at hi/lo'ing. I've had a few good £70s from it, but it's incredibly difficult to know how near you are to gaining anything. So, another one that I do not touch anymore.
The last of the Vivid batch, you know the ones I mean, Jeckyl and Hyde, the Karate one. Have only really played them once or twice, with absolutely no joy. Also seen them completed rip others off. My main reason for including these is based on what others have said about them on here. Also, I was never really a fan of Vivids anyway (apart from the obvious ones!

"And do you ever contradict yourself, Minister?" "Well, yes and no..."
Agreed when I first played the one I have my end I was loving it redding up, only to be raped lost a good £70 on it :x Haven't touched it since!Matt Vinyl wrote:Another one that both me and a chum have been stung on, is an 'apparently rogue' King's Ransom.

Truly truly awful! I tried to force one once. Never did get the jackpot.
